2/23/2020 0 Comments Janna's 2020 Make NineOkay, I've settled on nine makes for the year! I used The School of SweetGeorgia, online Plan Your Make Nine workshop to help me narrow my list down.
https://www.schoolofsweetgeorgia.com/ref/jannamaria/ Two knits are on currently my needles, the Ambershore Shawl and the Mark of the Hand shawl. I hope to get those done AND the Ripple Crop Top Worsted in time for Fibres West on March 13th. Wish me luck! 1) Raven Pullover/Caroline Dick 2) Deschain / Leila Raven 3) Snow Goose / Caitlin Shepherd. I plan on steeking this and turning it into a cardigan 4) Mark of the Hand / Yvonne Stowell. I'm knitting my second one in Everlea's Organic Merino Sport to get a feel for the pattern in wool instead of the recommended alpaca/linen (which I love). 5) Ripple Crop Top Worsted / Jessie Maed 6) Ambershore / Inese Sang 7) Meet & Separate Table Runner/ I teach this beginner tapestry weaving technique at the School of SweetGeorgia and Felicia has the great idea of making it into a table runner. I just received a beautiful hand-me-down table that I am eager to make even more homy. So I'm on board with this idea now, too. 8) Hemma mitts / Inese Sang 9) Equal Night /Sylvia McFadden. This will be my second Equal Night blanket which I knit only half-size. Both are gifts for my niece and nephew. Do you have a make list for 2020, or do you like to make as you go? Janna This is a must watch Vlog from Felicia Lo of SweetGeorgia Yarns.
Felicia talks about the top ten fears that knitters have shared with her about knitting with hand-dyed yarns and what we need to know and consider about each one. I assure you, you will learn AT LEAST one thing from this video. |
